Worried Mary Chords & Tabs
Song: Worried Mary
Band: Old Crow Medicine Show
Album: Greetings from WAWA
This song is of course on the banjo but there wasn't a choice for it.
It is on a classic 5-string banjo in Open D tuning. To get there from the standard Open
G tuning do this:
D
B - down a whole step to A
G - down half a step to F#
D
G - down half a step to F#
Resulting in:
D
A
F#
D
F#
Anyways, here goes. Clawhammer style!
D |-0~~~-|
A |-0~~~-|
F#|-0~~~-|
D |-0~~~-|
F#|-0~~~-|
